In-game description


Distinctively shaped helm worn by the
Knights of Catarina.

Outside Catarina, it is often ridiculed for
its onion-like shape, infuriating the proud
knights, but the masterfully forged curved
design makes it very effective for parrying.

Where to find

Merchant purchase

Sen's Fortress

Cost: 10000 Souls · Stock: ∞

Requirements

  • Ring both Bells of Awakening and reach the rooftops.
  • Keep the Crestfallen Merchant alive and friendly.
  1. Reach the fortress rooftops after passing the swinging blades and boulder passages.
  2. Find the narrow bridge with a missing section leading to a separate tower. Jump the gap, enter the tower and speak to the seated merchant.
  3. Open the purchase menu and buy Catarina Helm.
  • The tower jump has a fatal drop. The merchant is separate from the friendly knight sitting inside the fortress.

Notes

  • Weight and poise: Equips on the head, weighs 4.5 and provides 8 poise. Poise helps resist stagger; it does not reduce health damage.
  • Physical protection: Provides 22 normal physical defense at base reinforcement. Its strongest physical protection at this level is against slash damage. Different attack types use different physical defenses.
  • Protection: At base reinforcement, its elemental defense is 12 magic, 13 fire, 7 lightning. Fire is its strongest elemental defense at this level. Defense values are not percentages of incoming damage blocked.
  • Status resistance: Adds 13 bleed, 9 poison and 0 curse resistance at base reinforcement. These help resist buildup; they do not cure an existing status.
  • Reinforcement: Reinforce to +5 with Twinkling Titanite. Reinforcement improves defenses and resistances without changing weight, poise or maximum durability. Armor does not use weapon embers or elemental conversion paths.
  • Stamina recovery: Wearing this piece slows stamina recovery by 1 point per second. This penalty is separate from the movement changes caused by total equipment load.
  • Acquisition choice: Buy the outfit from the merchant. You do not need to attack Siegmeyer or Sieglinde for it.
  • Armor shape: The rounded plates do not give your weapons a special parry. Parry behavior comes from the weapon or shield you use.
